For years I have taught that we steal because we do not believe we can create.*
Erwin McManus

Studies have shown that negative self-talk, doubt, and disparagement go quiet when we’re engaged in creative work.**
Todd Herman

There isn’t a list,
You get to invent your own creativeness – you don’t have to
copy someone else, you can be
the first you –
For sure, there are broad categories of creativity, but the more
you try out the things that matter to you, the more
bespoke will be your originality and artistry;
The only thing I’d ask you to promise yourself? –
To leave the world better than you found it.
